Read complaints for KIA OPTIMA HYBRID (2016)
For the 2nd year, my kia would not start in 32 degree weather in big bear, ca. This is an annual trip & took my kia.the lights, radio all turn on but the engine will not start. I have to wait until noon for the sun to warm up the car & then it's back to normal. I have taken the car back to the dealership & have been told they cannot find any malfunction & never heard of anyone experience what i have. There are many forums with kia owners complaining of the same, but cannot get a fix or acknowledgement that the problem exists. It's beyond frustrating when the car has less than 40k miles.
The right passenger headlight won't work i changed the light bulb and it's completely off. At first when i attempted to change the bulb the light flickered and i thought that it might've not been put on all the way or it might've became loose. But then it went completely out causing a road hazard and unsafe to drive as lights are very important. It also has caused me to be pulled over by many police when i shouldn't be going through this or anyone's one else that is going through the same problem with kia. This first occurred when i was driving on the highway could've been a bad situation. It could be a bad wiring as i read from other reports but kia has not done a recall. This situation should be covered by kia and no one should pay as it is a safety issue and accidents could occur
